Brainstorm Brewery doubles down on Jasons as they are joined by real-world MTG financier Jason (@time_elemental) to talk about Born of the Gods, the 20-tix contest, his finance philosophy, and more. Is this set really Dragon's Maze 2.0? Is Pain Seer the next Bob or the next Blood Scrivener? How many cards do you draw from a Blood Scrivener anyway? Ryan was right about something, caus-ing Jason to dub him “King of the Vorthos,” but what was it? What goes into how much, total, a set should cost? If Ryan is King of the Vorthos, who is King of the Wescoes? Is it going to become confusing with two guys named Jason? Will our Jason let it not be? It's a photo finish at the hour mark as the gang tries once again to cram too much value into an episode, and as always, they'll leave you wanting more and ready for next week. Join us for a fun-filled episode that will have you running over to Gatherer to look up Mindclaw Shaman and Blood Scrivener and will leave you asking, “How long did people draft Dark Ascension?” Join us for Brainstorm Brewery.

• The second Pick of the Week is even better than the first.
• Who is really affecting the market? It may be more complex than we thought.
